"The old A/C is broken trick" as Maxwell Smart might say. I haven't seen that one since the Celts pulled into against the Lakers back in the 80's. Or maybe they claimed they didn't even have A/C. Had never heard of it. In the good old days, they would not only turn off the AC but turn the heat up in the opposing locker room. And then after the game claim there was no hot water for the showers. But only in the opposing team's locker room. Not a fan of LeBron. The celebrity culture in professional basketball and football has ruined the game. It's all about individual players instead of the team. I see people all over wearing his jersey. They aren't pulling for their local teams or even the Heat per se. They like the glamour of being associated with a star player. Fame and money is all that matters.
The old Boston Garden did not have AC; they used it back in those days from mid September to late May, rarely in those days was it super hot outside.
And LeBron; boo effing hoo, he's no Larry Bird, he'd never come out of a game, Willis Reed played on one leg, Michael Jordan had a 101 degree temperature and the stomach flu and lit up the Jazz, on and on it goes.
What a prima donna, what a baby, I thought he was the greatest, best conditioned athlete in the NBA?
He had "cramps"; there's a joke there somewhere.....:rolleyes2:.....all I could picture is John on the roof of the building smashing the AC unit with a sledgehammer......................
